SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 790,655, dated May 23,1905.

Application filed June 6, 1903. Serial m5. 160,396. I

To all whom, it may concern.-

Be it known that I, MARIUS OTTO, doctor of science, residing at No. 5Avenue du Bois de Boulogne, Paris,-France, have invented a certain newand useful Medical Ozon-izer; and I do hereby declare the following tobe a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as willenable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and usethe same.

The invention which is the subject of the present application for apatent relates to a process of ozonization for therapeutic purposes.

The medical ozonizer usually consists in principle of a small glass tubecontaining ozone, which is produced by aRuhmkorfi' coil, itself beingoperated by an ordinary vibrator or by a VVenhelt break; but reduced tothese elementsthe ozonizer placed in the hands of patients presents acertain danger, because of the violence of the shocks of the Ruhmkorfi'coil. To obviate this serious drawback, I have invented a medicalozonizer herein described, and represented in detail on the drawingsattached.

Figure 1 isadiagrammatic View of'the whole apparatus. Fig. 2 is a sideelevation with the side of the case removed. Fig. 3 is an elevasion ofthe apparatus in which the iron box is represented cut in order to showthe resonator and the condenser which it contains. (Seen in planilTFigriS.) Fig. 4 is a plan of the apparatus. Fig. 5 is aplan of thelower In said drawings, p indicates a battery or other suitable sourceof electricity, which is in the circuit of the primary of aninductioncoil llby means of the wires 17, 18, and 19. The usualcondenser r and make and break 2' are inserted between the wires 17 and19. The induction-coil 11 is of the step-up type, and the secondary coilis connected by thewires 13 and 14 with a pair of condensers 9 and 10.tween the wires 13 and 1 1 to increase the tension of the current. Thecondensers 9 and A sparking gap 12 is inserted be- 10 increase thecapacity of the circuit, and they are connected at the other side to apair of resonators? and 8 by the wires 17 and.

16. These resonators consist of two spirals of wire, Figs. 3 and 5,wound on an insulating-support formed, for example, of wooden spoke-s 20and separated by an insulating-plate 21. If now a suitable point 25 26of each of the windings is connected with a terminal of the ci rcuithaving the spark-gap 12,a resonance of waves is obtained which manifestsitselfin an additional increase in the tension at the ends of the coils.Leading from the ends of the coils are the wires 24 and 23. which conveythis current of increased tension through their terminals 5 and 6 to theelectrodes 1 and 2 of the ozonizer. Said o'zoni'zer consists in generalof a glass tube or chamber in which the said electrodes 1 and 2 aremounted, as

shown in Fig. 1. This tube is provided at its lower end with anair-injecting tube 3, by

which the air to be ozonized is injected into the chamber, whereupon theoxygen of the air is ozonized by the discharges passing be tween theelectrodes, and passes out through the trumpet-shaped opening 4:, whereit is inhaled by the patient.

The various elements are suitably arranged in a box a b 0 (Z, of whichthe sides a bjoined together can be removed, and the accumulators p arethemselves placed in accessible compartments.

The discharge excites the specially-modeled duplicate resonator formedby two spirals superposed, which is placed with the two auxiliarycondensers) and 10 in a drawer situated at the lower part ofthe'apparatus. This disposition allows of the easy adjustment of theelements.

Having thus described my invention, the following is what I claim as newtherein and desire to secure by Letters Patent:

A medical ozonizer comprising a suitable source of electricity, aninduction-coil, a circuit connecting said source of electricity with theprimary coil of said induction-coil, acondenser and a make-and-breakdevice in said In testimony whereof Ihave hereunto set my circuit, aresonator, a circuit connecting said hand 1n the presence of twosubscribing witresonator with the secondary coll 0t sald 1nnesses.

duction-coil and provided with condensers and MA RIUS o'no. a spark-gap,an ozonizer and a circuit con- Witnesses: necting both poles of saidozonizer with said OTTO MUNK,
